[QUOTE="Blue Baron, post: 6822, member: 1204"] I am perfectly aware of what DJI tried to achieve with the Spark project. The marketing campaign reflects it and it is clear DJI wanted a chunk from the emerging selfie drone market. The point is: DJI failed. For a selfie drone, the Spark is over-engineered and too expensive. A true selfie drone would still have to come at half weight and half price. The sooner DJI realizes, the sooner they can get a hold in the selfie market. In the meantime, DJI shouldn't lie to themselves. They should uncripple what they crippled (e.g., a hacked Spark has all Mavic flight modes enabled and with decent antennae, reach is 1+ km even in CE mode which is plenty for most use cases). And make the Spark a story telling tool for people capable of telling stories. If DJI does not react, they risk to loose all market to the Mavic which is only a tad more expensive. [/QUOTE]
